I'm not sure I follow. $ kvm -version QEMU emulator version 1.0 (qemu-kvm-1.0 Debian 1.0+dfsg-1), Copyright (c) 2003-2008 Fabrice Bellard $ kvm -cpu \? x86 [n270] x86 [athlon] x86 [pentium3] x86 [pentium2] x86 [pentium] x86 [486] x86 [coreduo] x86 [kvm32] x86 [qemu32] x86 [kvm64] x86 [core2duo] x86 [phenom] x86 [qemu64] $ kvm -cpu foobar Unable to find x86 CPU definition Yes, qemu tries to open /etc/kvm/qemu.conf and /etc/kvm/target-x86_64.conf but these files are not mandatory - built-in configuration (as used without these files) is exactly the same as if there were the default files installed. The bug looks like an operator error - quit typical trap I'd say, using a shell metacharacter (?) in a directory where there's a file matching it.
